Product Overview

The KRUPS 358-70 La Glaciere Ice Cream Maker is designed to produce homemade ice cream, yogurt, or sorbet with ease. It features a 1.5-quart capacity freezing bowl and a simple one-speed electrical operation.

Included Components:

• Ice Cream Machine (Motor Unit, Lid, Dasher, Freezing Bowl)
• Instruction Manual
• Recipe Book

Setup

1. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the freezing bowl, lid, and dasher in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry all parts completely. The motor unit should be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
2. Prepare Freezing Bowl: For optimal results, ensure the freezing bowl is completely dry before placing it in the freezer. Place the freezing bowl in the freezer for at least 24 hours, or until thoroughly frozen. The colder the bowl, the better the ice cream consistency.
3. Assemble the Unit: Once the freezing bowl is frozen, remove it from the freezer. Place the dasher inside the freezing bowl. Position the lid onto the freezing bowl, ensuring it is securely seated. Finally, place the motor unit onto the lid, aligning it correctly.

Operating Instructions

1. Prepare Your Mixture: Prepare your desired ice cream, sorbet, or frozen yogurt mixture according to a recipe. Ensure the mixture is chilled in the refrigerator before adding it to the machine.
2. Start Churning: With the freezing bowl, dasher, lid, and motor unit assembled, plug the appliance into an electrical outlet. Turn the machine on. It is recommended to start the motor before adding the mixture to prevent the dasher from freezing to the canister.
3. Add Mixture: Slowly pour the chilled mixture through the opening in the lid while the machine is running. Do not overfill; the mixture will expand during churning. The maximum capacity is 1.5 quarts.
4. Churning Process: Allow the machine to churn for approximately 20-30 minutes, or until the desired consistency is reached. The machine operates at one speed and will churn automatically. The dasher is designed to reverse direction if the mixture becomes too firm.
5. Serving: Once churning is complete, unplug the machine. Remove the motor unit and lid. Carefully remove the dasher. Serve the soft-serve consistency ice cream immediately, or transfer it to an airtight container and place it in the freezer for a firmer consistency.

Maintenance and Cleaning

• Cleaning: Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. The freezing bowl, lid, and dasher should be hand washed with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. The motor unit can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the motor unit in water.
• Drying: Ensure all parts, especially the freezing bowl, are completely dry before storing or re-freezing. Any residual water in the freezing bowl can lead to warping or damage when frozen.
• Storage: Store the ice cream maker in a clean, dry place.

Troubleshooting

• Paddle Not Turning: Ensure the motor unit is correctly seated on the lid and the dasher is properly inserted into the freezing bowl. Verify the appliance is plugged into a working electrical outlet. If the mixture is too thick before churning begins, it may prevent the dasher from turning; ensure your mixture is chilled and pour it in after the motor starts.
• Freezing Bowl Leakage: If the freezing bowl appears to be leaking liquid, it may indicate damage to the internal coolant. Discontinue use and contact customer support.
• Ice Cream Not Freezing/Too Icy: Ensure the freezing bowl was frozen for a minimum of 24 hours (or longer for best results) and was completely dry before freezing. The mixture should also be thoroughly chilled before adding it to the machine.
• Uneven Freezing: A small layer of ice cream may sometimes form at the very bottom of the freezing bowl that the dasher does not fully incorporate. This is normal and can be scraped out manually after churning.
